Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy
A powerful tool, held within the deeper work.
There's a lot of noise right now around ketamine and psychedelics — a lot of it promising quick transformation, a lot of it treating the medicine as the whole story. That's not how I work, and it's not what this is.
Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy, done well, is not a shortcut. The medicine can open a door — it can soften the defenses that usually keep us at a safe distance from ourselves, and it can make accessible what's ordinarily out of reach. But the door opening isn't the work. The work is what we do with what we find on the other side, and how we integrate it back into your life. That part is slow, relational, and human. It's the same depth work I've always done. The medicine simply gives us a different kind of access to it.
What it actually is
Ketamine is a legal medicine that, at the right dose in the right setting, produces a temporary shift in consciousness — a loosening of the usual mental patterns, a quieting of the inner critic, and often a sense of spaciousness or perspective that can be difficult to reach through talk therapy alone. For many people, it makes it possible to approach material — grief, trauma, long-held patterns, parts of themselves they've kept at arm's length — with less fear and more openness.
But the medicine is only one part of a larger process. The heart of the work is the preparation beforehand and the integration afterward — the sessions where we make meaning of what surfaced and translate it into actual change. Without that, an experience remains just an experience. With it, it can become a genuine turning point.
How it works
I offer this work in partnership with Journey Clinical, a medical practice that handles the clinical and prescribing side of ketamine treatment. This means your medical care is overseen by licensed medical professionals who evaluate your eligibility, determine appropriate dosing, and monitor your health throughout — while I hold the psychotherapeutic side: the preparation, the deeper work, and the integration.
The process generally looks like this:
- An initial medical consultation through Journey Clinical to determine whether ketamine is appropriate and safe for you.
- Preparation sessions with me, where we clarify your intentions and get you ready for the experience.
- The medicine sessions themselves, held in a safe, supported setting.
- Integration sessions afterward, where the real meaning-making happens and where insight becomes change.
Who it's for
Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy can be particularly helpful for people working with depression, anxiety, trauma, and the kind of long-standing patterns that have proven resistant to talk therapy alone. It tends to be a good fit for people who are ready to do real work — not looking for a quick fix, but open to a different kind of access to themselves.
It isn't right for everyone. There are medical and psychological considerations that determine whether it's safe and appropriate, which is exactly why the medical screening through Journey Clinical is part of the process. When we speak, I'm glad to talk honestly about whether this is likely to be a good fit for you.
